ABSTRACT:
Transducer position is determined relative to a disk in a data storage system. Track identification information is read from a disk in the data storage system to provide a coarse position signal identifying a track that the transducer is positioned over. Position error samples are read from a disk in the data storage system to provide a fine position signal representing transducer position error within a track that the transducer is positioned over. Then, the coarse position signal and the fine position signal are correlated so they correspond to the same track on the disk.
